Text support problem

[juppy]

Got a problem here. I'm helping a friend get an old computer up and running as a starter machine. She didn't spend much on it and it's pretty old (Pentium 100). She said she just wanted it to connect to the internet mainly.

Here's the problem; the machine is using Win95 and IE 5.5 and when I go to a certain web page, it says it needs the Pan European text support. I used to be able to DL it from Microsoft, but apparently they no longer support Win95. Anybody know where these various languages of text support can be found anymore? Any help is appreciated as always.

Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click Add/Remove Programs.
Click Internet Explorer 5.5.
Click Add/Remove.
Click Add a Component, and then click OK.
Scroll down and select the component that you want to install.
Click Next.
Follow the instructions in the wizard.
Click Yes to restart the computer if necessary.

Hi glc,

Thanks for replying. I've sent the computer back to her already but still couldn't get the text stuff up and going. I had already tried what you suggested above here, but that's what I don't understand. When I got to the part after "Add a Component", I could pick what text support kinds I was needing but it didn't give me any kind of wizard or anything. Instead, it gave some weird message like "Insert the Microsoft Utilities Disk that has these updates on it" or something to that effect anyway. It wanted me to put in some disk that I didn't even have. I tried putting in the Win95 disk that I installed everything else from, but apparently it wasn't wanting anything out of those .CAB files. Not sure what "disk" it wanted really. Any other thoughts?
